Hi guys.

I thought I would post in here as a last resort. I'm trying desperately to find a rapide to hire or otherwise acquire as a wedding car for a day. The issue I have is I can't seem to find one in black. I really do not want one in a light silver but that is all that appears to be available. It's more maddening that the extent of any description I get appears to be "silver" when I know that quantum for example is a world away from titanium.

Anyway I didn't think it would be this hard to find a black one but I'm having serious difficulty. If not black I'm happy to go for something different as long as (preferably) it's a dark colour.

I tried the dealership where I bought my N400 but unsurprisingly (and i dont mean that in any cutting way) they were unable to assist really although they were very kind.

So. If anyone has any ideas or alternative avenues all suggestions would be greatly received.

Best.

Thanks Yeti. I will do that. Silly question. But do you know where I could find the number?! I couldn't really see the appropriate contact on the website but I may well be displaying some stupidity

Thanks George. I saw that but again, "silver" only it seems.

A friend of mine in the Netherlands has several Astons available for weddings, including a very nice blue Rapide:

Wow, Hertz offers it's own family version of the 9..

"With ample seating in the back for two children, the DB9 is suitable for families too."
